Received 17 March 1999; first review notified 7 June 1999; accepted 21 June 1999

Wistar rats were allowed to drink ethanol in a two-bottle (water vs 2–8% v/v ethanol) and then in a three-bottle choice paradigm (water vs 8% ethanol vs 16% ethanol, v/v). After 7 months of free access to alcohol, the subjects were trained to respond for 8% ethanol in an operant procedure. No relationship was found between prior alcohol drinking and lever pressing for ethanol.
